Current Best World XI across all three formats
Four Indians feature in the list.
6. Mohammad Rizwan (WK)
If this elite line-up was made a couple of years ago, Mohmmad Rizwan wouldn’t have been anywhere near the reckoning. In fact, he didn’t even have a permanent place in the Pakistan line-up. However, fortunes changed for the Peshawar-born cricketer after he replaced Sarfaraz Ahmed in all formats in 2019. He bagged the opportunity with both hands and played one magnificent knock after another.
While his agility and précised glovework helped him behind the stumps, his consistency with the bat left fans and experts in awe. Rizwan has scored runs in several conditions in his short but impressive career. The 29-year-old even has a century in all three formats. Hence, he made a cut in this team ahead of Rishabh Pant, Jos Buttler, and Quinton de Kock.
Rizwan also became the vice-captain position of the Test team with his spectacular show. He even has led Pakistan in whites. Hence, it’s evident that the team management has high hopes from Rizwan and the wicket-keeper would also be determined to deliver several match-winning performances.
